This weekend we will be at the Goodwood Motor Circuit for the 76th Members' Meeting. Although only held for the fourth time in its revived form, the event is already a set fixture on the historic motorsport calendar. One of the blue ribband races of the weekend is the two-driver Gerry Marshall Trophy for late 1970s and early 1980s Group 1 touring cars. It provides for a particularly colourful grid that features a wide variety of machinery. Among the top runners is the Rover SD1 3500 we have highlighted today. No fewer than four examples are featured in our 48-shot gallery, each of which raced at the Members' Meeting last year and should be out on track again this weekend.
Another fabulous machine due on track over the weekend is this ex-Scuderia Ferrari Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza. The car has had a well documented period and historic racing career. It won the Swedish Grand Prix and was also in the lead of the Monaco Grand Prix with Tazio Nuvolari until a last lap failure prompted a retirement. In more recent years, it was famously driven to Goodwood on the road from its home in Germany, claimed victory in its race at the Revival and was then driven all the way back. This weekend the lovely Monza will be pitched against its contemporaries in the Carraciola Sportwagen Rennen.
One of the great seen action last year during the GT1 demonstration was this McLaren F1 GTR. At this year's edition, dedicated demonstrations will be run for Group 5 and Formula 5000 cars both of which promise a stellar field of cars.
As always, you can expect a detailed report and gallery from the event a few days after the event.
Today, we also continue our Amelia Island coverage with a detailed and well illustrated look at the remaining auction results. Gooding topped the results with a combined total of $35.7 million sold and a sell-through rate of 94%. Rival RM Sotheby's saw 'only' 87% of the lots find a new owner for a total of $27.7 million.

The action at Amelia Island kicked off last week with the Bonhams Auction on Thursday. Of the 104 cars consigned 84% sold for a combined total of just over $13.5 million. We have now published the full results, illustrated by a 120-shot gallery.
On the other side of the Atlantic, Bonhams's motoring department will host another sale on Saturday as part of the Goodwood Members' Meeting. Among the cars consigned to the official Members' Meeting sale is the Lamborghini 400 GT 2+2 ordered new by none other than Paul McCartney of Beatles fame. Never restored, it has survived in remarkably original condition. Also boasting famous provenance is this altogether more affordable Aston Martin DB7 Volante, which was owned and used during the first year of its life by HRH Prince Andrew, the Duke of York. One of the more unusual cars consigned and one we have seen in action at Goodwood several times is this Attila Mk3. It is one of a handful of small-block V8 engined sports racer designed and built by the talented Val Dare-Bryan during the mid-1960s. With a pre-sale estimate of GBP 125,000, it offers an affordable way into, for example, one of the Goodwood Revival's most prestigious classes.

Today, the doors of the 2018 Geneva Motor Show for the first of two press days. We have kept close tabs on the best cars released today. Impossible to miss was the McLaren Senna GTR. Although shown in concept car form, this track only machine will be built in a limited run of 75 examples only in 2019. While there are currently no plans to race the car, the Senna GTR does look like it was built with the LM-GTE class in mind.
Toyota have finally revived the Supra name for this GR Supra Racing Concept. Built by Gazoo Racing, it just screams for a road-going production version.
The recently revived Alpine brand revealed the latest, GT4 version of the A110, which is due to hit the tracks in the near future.
To mark the end of Aero production, Morgan have revealed the Aero GT of which just eight will be built.
With 1,177bhp on tap, one of the most powerful cars on display is this Zenvo TSR-S. The latest evolution of the Danish hypercar is powered by a twin-supercharged V8 engine.
Offering various options for the future were the concept cars like the Lagonda VIsion Concept, the Porsche Mission E Cross Turismo and BMW Concept M8 Gran Coupe.

2018-03-05:Final Geneva Motor Show preview with first releases ...

Tomorrow, the doors will open for the ever highly anticipated annual Geneva Motor Show and to get you in the mood, we have taken a first look at the latest announcements. One of the most exotic is unquestionably the Techrules Ren RS. The high performance Chinese machine features no fewer than six electric motors, good for a combined 1,287bhp. The range of the sophisticated machine is further extended by a turbine generator. Responsible for the styling of the Ren RS are father Giorgietto and son Fabrizio Giugiaro.
This evening, at the Volkswagen Group press conference, Bentley presented the company's first hybrid car in the form of the Bentayga Hybrid. The plug-in hybrid SUV features a new turbo-charged V6 that works together with an electric motor. Also revealed there was the Cupra e-Racer, which is an all-electric racing car introduced to highlight the launch of Seat's high performance sub-brand Cupra.
Mercedes-AMG will use the Geneva Motor Show to showcase an improved version of the C 43 Saloon. In its latest iteration, the twin-turbo V6 engine has modified to produce a further 17bhp for a total of 385bhp. This power is fed to all four wheels through a nine-speed automatic.
Well known Mercedes-Benz 'enhancer' Brabus will reveal the latest 800 model, both in Saloon and Coupe form. Whole the former is based on the Mercedes-AMG E 63 S, the latter uses the Mercedes-AMG S 63 S Coupe as basis, which do both feature the same twin-turbo engine. With Brabus' modifications, this sophisticated unit pumps out very close to 200bhp per litre.
